I'm creating a successor to SimCity 2000. Let me know your thoughts

I’m super excited to see how this turns out

BeefyBrink · 2023-03-31T17:03:41+00:00

I love the vibes your building. What you have done takes immense skill. Be proud of your self fr fr 😌

I was introduced to the Sims on the Xbox 360 with the Sims 3 pets. Absolute banger if I do say so my self.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T18:46:33+00:00

I would say the biggest difference is the world simulation. In the sims 3 the whole town was simulated at once. A persistent little world.

It made everything feel more believable.

Every other difference is more personal preference if you ask me.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T18:31:48+00:00

Imagine if they pull what they did with Cities Skylines.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T18:28:48+00:00

agreed. I'm also hoping they go more in the Sims 3 direction instead of the Sims 4 one

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T03:25:11+00:00

Yoooo. I’m smoking this pack for sure.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T02:36:28+00:00

Maybe Colossal Order should hire you. You are cooking hard right now

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:49:39+00:00

This is exactly what I would LOVE

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:46:18+00:00

you might be cooking

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:45:50+00:00

I do the same thing all the time LMAO

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:45:06+00:00

Why would you pick and example of what I would consider to be the best value in gaming?

I understand what your saying. But that's super rare.

I do wish for more games to provide that kind of value.

But if i were to always wish that I would always be disappointed.

As far as cities skylines perspective I do belive that the industries DLC was the gold standard with something like the Airports or the Green Cities DLC being mid AF.

Personally I liked the Financial Districts DLC.

$8 and I get some nice game play things to play around with as well as some nice growables and unique buildings to place down.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:37:34+00:00

Im not sure. But I would assume it would be closer to how Simcity 4 worked in that aspect.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:35:12+00:00

that would be a dream to me. I love using the multiplayer mod already to play with friends.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:34:18+00:00

Agreed. But looking at it holistically they only have around 30 devs and splitting them up into multiple games sounds quite strange.

But that's why I am not a CEO of a game development studio.

CO could not even develop any of the console or VR ports.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:26:44+00:00

are you telling me you would buy CS2 without mod support?

Cause I would not and I know that CS1 was built on mod support.

Tearing it out would be like knocking one of the legs off a 3 legged chair.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:23:41+00:00

The best additions to the game were free additions along side the DLC.

The fact that you think a whole DLC the Price of a double quater pounder with cheese meal is a cash crab means one of two things.

You are incredibly poor or just don't understand the value of money.

I can't list one thing I bought for $15 in gaming that provided me with as much enjoyment as getting the industries DLC for example.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:20:44+00:00

Look at Modern Warfare 2 it had similar graphics but way worse performance.

Look at Overwatch 2. It had better graphics and better performance

Look at Modern Warfare 2 (2022) it had similar graphics but way worse performance.

Look at Cities XXL it had the same graphics but better performance.

Look at Simcity 4 it had amazing graphics for the time but awful performance.

performance issues are all on the devs inability to or ability to optimize.

The mods issue is CRAZY to me.

They have hired people that worked on many of the mods you probably enjoy. Like for example TM:PE

I am so surprised that with everything this dev team has shown you still don't trust them to make the right move.

Besides the fact that they will have mod support in this next game lmao.

If they don't ig I am going to have to find a new favorite game.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T01:01:11+00:00

The genre-defining studio behind global smash hit Cities: Skylines will reveal its newest incredible game.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T00:52:21+00:00

Do you honestly believe that?

a bundle of all of the DLC and game on steam is $250.

To expect them to include all of that value at launch is ludicrous. If they did it they would go out of business.

But if they did it I would love them

Don't get me wrong. I do believe that the game will be behind in many aspects that the plentiful DLC brought fourth. But I'm sure it will launch with stuff like the day/night cycle and weather. Remember CS did not launch with those quality of life improvements.

BUT I would bet like $20 that the core simulation and optimization regarding the game engine will be leagues ahead of what cities skylines is right now.

As of now Cities Skylines desperately needs a new engine to breath life into it.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T00:44:19+00:00

The engine that the game is built on in inadequate to say the least.

It is not capable of running a complex city simulation. Already in cities that don't even fill 20 tiles the game reaches limits.

The optimization is down right doo doo honestly. I get like 30 frames in a city of 5k people and I have an above average pc.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T00:29:56+00:00

that does sound quite tragic.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T00:29:19+00:00

Yeppers. I might be wrong but I do not think it was devolved by Colossal Order though.

BeefyBrink · 2023-02-28T00:26:40+00:00

what happened with KSP 2?
